Vice President JD Vance threw his full support behind President Donald Trump’s deadly military strike on an alleged Venezuelan drug smuggling boat in the Caribbean this week, saying that he did not even care if people call it a war crime.
“Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military,” Vance wrote Saturday on X.

“I don’t give a shit what you call it,” the vice president replied.
